According to a report in the New Orleans Times-Picayune, the surgery is set
for Friday in Los Angeles and is similar to what New Orleans shooting guard
Eric Gordon underwent earlier in May to remove bone spurs in his left ankle.

No timetable is set for Vasquez's recovery, but the report did note that El
Universal, a newspaper in Caracas, Venezuela, reported that Vasquez is
expected to miss 12-to-16 weeks.

Vasquez averaged 13.9 points and 9.0 assists last season, finishing second
behind Indiana's Paul George for the NBA's Most Improved award.
